Trent Talk is your Halo by Halo guide to America's greatest treasure: Trent Reznor. Hosts Cheya Cary and Clare Dickerson take you on a journey through his life and music, while learning a little something about themselves along the way.
In this episode our pal Jesse Seilhan from Extra Damagecast is back to discuss Nine Inch Nails' FYF performance with us. We compare and contrast the FYF experience with the Panorama experience & go through the setlist describing how we felt about the choices they made. We also talk mad shit about someone's terrible Vulture interview questions, which sparked talking shit about someone's Medium/Mel Magazine writeup. For audio in this episode we used the live show at Panorama, as they were so kind as to post that entire performance to YouTube (and the setlist was the same as FYF.)
This week we discuss Not The Actual Events and the possible events that take place during this EP.
Welcome to the Sigil by Sigil guide to this other thing Trent Reznor does, How To Destroy Angels. We're not the most enthusiastic about this particular thing but come along with us on this journey because it'll be over soon.
It is with a heavy heart that we learned Grunge Dad Chris Cornell died on May 18, 2017. To show some love to a man whose music has meant a lot to the both of us we bring you a special episode: Cornell Chat. Travel with us through the Chris' career, from Fopp to Higher Truth.
Our pal Jordan is back to school us on nuance in another episode of We Talk About Movies Now, I Guess. Clare gets real angry about some things, Cheya goofs and Jordan is Jordan. He's great, what is there to even say? We're also FUCKING DONE WITH SOUNDTRACKS so we can get back to our normal dang show. Whew! Finally.
Oops we took a month off SORRY here's a good fun chat with the actual human named Josh Wylie! Hesitation Marks! Let's get into it!
THIS WEEK TRENT TALK TURNS 1! HOW EXCITING! It's been a real great year and we're stoked that you spent it with us. In honor of that we decided to do something real goofy and dumb. WE ALSO HAVE A DRINKING GAME! For every time Clare bonks her headphones or beer bottle on the mic, take a drink. When she gets really angry about it, take a shot. ENJOY!
This week we talk about The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo with our pal Jordan Scott of Nerd's Eye View. Once again, this is more of a discussion of the movie, so if you haven't seen it, you may not want to listen to this episode. It's 100% spoilers.
In this week's episode of Trent Talk we discuss The Social Network, a film by David Fincher for which Trent Reznor did the soundtrack. Joining us is one of the founding members of the Benview Network, Matt Benson! We spend more time discussing the movie than we do the music itself, which is a deviation from our business, as usual.
This week we finally get to dive into the first release of How To Destroy Angels, and we also spend a little time listening to some memorable tracks of Bowie's to celebrate his birthday (January 8th) and deathday (January 10th).
Listener Robbie Corrie sent us a great, thoughtful email that asked an important question: What's in the future for Trent Talk?

Two out of two Trent Talk hosts agree that this is the "best ep we've done so far," so hold onto your butt! In this week's episode we listen to entirely too many remixes, both of us deliver some Imprezions, we talk more about Le Pig studios & the murder in Sharon Tate's house and some uncanny coincidences--or are they?!--and we listen to The Cure for a minute.
